What is this
To love while counting down
To inevitable loss

What striving we do
To succeed while marking tallies
On life’s to-do list

Stop

Nothing lasts forever
But this endless moment
This now you have

Doesn’t matter how it ends
Only how you lived
How you loved

Stop

Feel

Philosophers wax esoteric
About the mysteries of existence
Searching for obscure meaning
That will crack the shell
Of secret understanding
They’ve forgotten to watch
Children at play
Turning the keys
To unlock imagination
Anticipation
Joyous life celebration
Simply being

Here, in the middle
No longer chasing
Heart-pounding discovery
Not yet counting
My yesterdays
Missed opportunities
Instead, stopping
To cherish what’s been
And what’s yet to come

Silver glitter streaks the gray
Washes the paint from her face
And the blue from her staring eyes

What were they supposed to do? Fight forever? Fight until the very #last human fell to their knees and breathed no more?

It had been months, now, and Dylan knew no more than anyone the reasons behind the war. What The Enemy wanted other than the death of all humankind.

It made no sense.

This was a tricky one. The #last piece of a puzzle that Rory had run around the sprawling, buried ruins in order to find and open up yet another chamber where the boss monster lay in wait.

There it was, up on that pillar, with no obvious way of reaching it.

Unless … the other room. Again!

#MPPrompt

Every evening in my bed
Trying to get their voices out of my head
Busybody directions
Questioning my life and my intentions
Can’t they turn their crap inward
Taking care of ourselves already hard

I have this phrase stuck in my head, see if you can use it: “someone else’s noise”

There’s a river of darkness
Flowing through my veins
Blackens my daydreams

Sinks my soul
To out of reach depths
Through to the #last of the empties

Because without you
Moon stars sun blur into one
These are my never more hours

#last

Jordan was always the last one to be done
Not because they were slow but because of fun
They didn’t want it to go fast
They wanted to make it last and last
And no matter what they would be the last one

The list of what is relevant these days
Changes every moment with new crazes
Issues that stress us out
Too numerous to count
Hoping that we soon move out of this phase

Love is more than words
More than the number
Of rose petals in a bunch

Love isn’t #hard
When you understand
The language of your heart

Too many ask
Am I relevant?
Have I done anything of importance?

I ask
Was I kind?
Was I helpful?

Ask the right question
Live a better life
Matter

The fact we need feminists still
Shows how very far we have yet to go
Your type’s resistance to my equality
Tells me how fragile you are
And how strong I am
Pardon me, but your fear is showing

I was once
Such as you

A full heart
Instead of this
Slivered remnant

A shining soul
Instead of this
Gaunt shadow

A clear song
Instead of this
Empty throat

Proud and tall
Instead of crawling
On bleeding knees

I was once
Whole like you

But they pulled me to pieces
